Can anyone confirm the rumor that K-Mart is having a sale starting tomorrow on Star Wars figures? Supposedly, the sale is going to be Buy One Get One on all figures.

At K-Mart's prices, that should bring them down to normal levels!

But, seriously, I would be able to confirm this when they post tomorrow's ad, but anyone else can at this point. (I can't understand why stores don't at the very least post them at 9 PM on Saturday. Their stores are closed; no one can go in until Sunday, when the sales apply anyway.)

RS lists it as a fact, but has no evidence to back it up. I guess it might be worth a trip there just to check it out.

Figures here are $8.99 each at K-Mart...so BOGO would make these roughly $4.50 each at this rate. This would be by far the cheapest the Vintage Collection has been yet.

Well, young whippersnappers, I can help you out. [fluffs newspaper, a la dad with his pipe circa 1962] Let's see here... K-Mart ad [looks through newspaper advertisements]... should be here... always is one of those... I don't always look through it carefully... sometimes it's just the cover, sometimes scanning through the pages... hmm. No K-Mart ad today; maybe they forgot it. Or didn't print one. Sorry there, sport. Can't help you out. Go ask your mother.

[Internet update] According to the K-mart "website" (I use quotation marks, because it said the closest store to me was about 18 miles away, ignoring the one 4 miles down the street, and said "no products found matching star wars" in Toys & Games), it does show Iron Man 2 and SW figures at that sale price (even shows some Mandolarian character with a KM sticker [exclusives; oh joy] featured).

I found the ROTJ wave at K-Mart and grabbed what I needed. The Legends and CW had stickers calling out the BOGO sale but Vintage did not. I took them up to the register and... BOGO! I wish they'd had more Gam Guards.

My Kmart didn't have much new, but I did get yet another AOTC clone and SBD. Hopefully they'll restock before the end of the week.

Confirmed out here as well. I stopped by tonight qand found they had the Vintage marked BOGO.

There were about 9 or so figures on beat up cards. I bought 4 for the price of 2 and now have enough to send out for a mail away Fett.

$4.50 for openers is a good price. I bought Cloud Car Pilot, Zuckuss, Dengar, and General Veers (AT-AT Driver).:laugh:

Also, my local K-Mart opens at 8:00 a.m. so I will be able to stop by on my way to work every morning this week to hunt for cheap figures. :thumbsup:

This was a pretty great deal, even though I really don't have the money. I got Woooooof! and the Hoth Han Solo, Sandtrooper, BaR2-D2, Rebel Commando and Admiral Ackbar. Most figs I bought for a while. Yeah! :thumbsup:

Made it by my local Kmart to check out this sale...only the vintage and the legends figures were marked as BOGO...and the selection was petty slim.

I did pick up the ROTJ "Wooof" (what a dumb name...he'll always be "Klaatu" to me) which was evidence that the new wave had made an appearance in my area. Nothing else but ESB and ROTS stuff on very beat-up cards.

Just don't have the time to hit stores for stuff like I used to...work's been pretty intense lately....so I hope that Jedi wave shows up "in force" soon...looking forward to finding some more of that one....

Still thankful for that great deal on the AT-AT that Kmart featured a few weeks back...

Went this early evening and found a pretty beaten up CW display of almost no figures. Th aisle section had a few Vintage figs, but none that I wanted, even at $4.50 each. I might try again this week, but if I don't it's no big deal (pun intended).

Yup.

And some underprivileged kid in my neck of the woods is getting Greedo and IG-88. :thumbsup:

The only ones I have gotten so far are a saga legends snowtrooper and saga legends geonosian battle droid two pack. Three figures!!! Ha, ha!! I bought one and got TWO free.
